Well, fast forward to what's happened on 48 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 2: an aeroplane that's. 49 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: Like the set of Steel Magnolias. 50 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 3: Dolly one rip. 51 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 2: Well. Apparently, because he was so big, normal conveniences like 52 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 2: toilets and hotel beds and things like that, it just weren't, yes, 53 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 2: well weren't very good for him. So apparently the wrestling 54 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 2: great Brutus the barber Beefcake real name Edward Leslie. He 55 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 2: recounted that he was on a Boeing seven four to 56 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 2: seven flight from Tokyo to the US with Andre, the Giant. 57 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 2: Andre was desperate to use the lavatory but couldn't fit 58 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 2: into a standard. 59 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 3: Airport toilet alane toilet, air sorry, airplane toilet. This is 60 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 3: where this story gets rough. 61 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 1: Plane. 62 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 2: As a solution, flight attendants rigged a black garbage bag 63 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 2: between beverage carts near the gully they rolled in for privacy, 64 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: and this is the quote, and Andrea went to down. Apparently, 65 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 2: Brutus says he I love the description. Brutus describes the chaos. 66 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 2: I've never heard anything like it. 67 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 3: The smell. 68 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: People were falling out of their seats, gagging, puping, puking, crying, screaming, 69 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: I couldn't breathe. He estimated Andre must have filled half 70 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 2: a garbage bag in the well. Apparently, Yeah, that's what 71 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 2: they had to string garbage bags between the beverage cars. 72 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 2: You know, I hope they closed beverage service. And this 73 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 2: is because when he ate. At every time he'd sit 74 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 2: down to eat, he'd have ten kilos of food. 75 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 3: How much is that compared. 76 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: To a fridge that's a bar fridge. 77 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 3: How BIG's a palmi? How heavy would palm like. 78 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: Two hundred grams? 79 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 2: He had ten kilos, so his bow output was similarly massive, 80 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 2: it says here. After the ordeal, attendants wrapped the bag 81 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 2: in multiple layers for Bozel and sent it belong below. 82 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 2: He apparently calmly returned to his seat, ordered wine, and 83 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: resumed beating another tin. 84 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 3: He ate another bar fridge. 85 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 2: There's lots of rumors about how because in hotels he 86 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,119 Speaker 2: couldn't fit on the loo. 87 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 3: You'd have to go in the bar, stomp it, stop it. 88 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: House keeping that day. 89 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 2: Oh wow, Andre the Giant, he's dead?
